A huge new white-water rafting centre coming to Dublin

Set to be completed in 2021, the city will have aquatic sports right by the Liffey.

A fortnight ago Dublin City Councillors were given the go ahead for a new exciting project on George’s Dock.

Following much discussion a new €22 million multi purpose white-water rafting centre will be built. Providing an attraction for tourists and also doubling up as a space for emergency services to use for training, it will be completed in 2021.

In a video uploaded to youtube by Smart Docklands it shows the potential attraction complete with  a space reserved by the river Liffey for sports such as canoeing. Coupled with a dam complete with rapids for rafting it seems nailed on to draw thousands annually.

Have a look at the video depicting the new space below:
